Abstract
Description
As the state with the fifth largest Native American population, New Mexico has a unique interest in issues impacting Native Americans. Issues impacting the tribal community have a significant effect on the state as a whole. This report explores the problem of reported child sexual abuse among Native Americans in New Mexico. The report draws upon data collected by the All Faiths Safehouse of Albuquerque. The Safehouse maintains a database of all child abuse cases reported to and processed by them.
